Ingredients
  

For the Pancakes:
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature
  • 2.25 cups whole milk at room temperature
  • 1 cup mashed banana very ripe
  • 1 pint fresh blueberries washed and stems removed
  • 2 firm bananas sliced into rounds
  • 1/2 cup butter for the pan
  • Maple syrup for serving

Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Non-stick skillet or griddle
  • Spatula
  • Serving plates

Method
 

Instructions:
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg until well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Then add the whole milk and the mashed banana. Stir until everything is well combined.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Gently fold them together using a spatula.
  4. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
  5. Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a tablespoon of butter.
  6. Using a ladle, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
  7. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Transfer the pancakes to a serving plate and keep warm while repeating with the remaining batter. Serve topped with sliced bananas and maple syrup.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • Don’t overmix the batter; it should be slightly lumpy for optimal fluffiness.
  • Reserve some blueberries to sprinkle on top while cooking for added flavor.
